Fed up of Nokia’s chunky plastic casing? You’ll be right at home with the Nokia Lumia 925
Which trades it in for a thinner 8.5mm metal frame instead
Which angular lines and a cool touch. It’s a step up from the ugly as anything Lumia 820
And the plasticky Samsung Galaxy S4 too
Even if it’s still not exactly a work of art
Like HTC’s exquisitely chiselled HTC One or Apple’s iPhone 5.Making up

Nokia's brand new Lumia 925 combines a similar design to their previous
Questionable battery longevity
Some camera functions overly complicated to use
We have few to no complaints about the hardware
Save for that we just wished the tank-like Nokia Lumia 920 looked like this last year. Our only criticisms are the platform
Windows Phone 8 is still very limited. Its keyboard lags behind the smarts of Android’s QWERTY options
And Internet Explorer feels clunky compared to Safari and Chrome for mobile.Nokia’s done the best it could with what it h

Abstract: At their event in London yesterday, Nokia unveiled the Lumia 925, which features a unique combination of aluminium and polycarbonate. We've already gone hands on with the Lumia 925 in Black, Gray and White and now we give you a walk through of the Lumia 9...
Solid, attractive build, Good display, Versatile camera, Excellent call quality
PenTile screen, Non-expandable memory, Limited Windows Phone 8 apps selection
The Nokia Lumia 925 marks a slight change in direction for the Lumia series, adopting metal rather than sticking to series-staple polycarbonate. But otherwise it's Lumia through and through, with a camera that offers unusually good low light performance, ...
The Nokia Lumia 925 is undeniably a great phone in its own right, but it's just not a big enough improvement over the Nokia Lumia 920 for there to be any reason to buy it if you own last year's model - although that is quickly being phased out.With dated...
The Lumia 925 stands apart from preceding Windows handsets that Nokia styled more for pre-teens, with a slightly more sophisticated metal and grey plastic look. As a piece of phone hardware it's competently put together, but ultimately is undermined by an...

Excellent camera quality, Good display quality, Easy to navigate, Easy to read on
Poor battery life, Processor is a bit dated, Subpar speaker quality, Windows app store is limited compared to Apple and Google Play stores
If you are interested in trying out a Windows phone or simply upgrading, the Lumia 925 is a solid choice. It might be worth considering the newer Lumia 1020 for an additional $50 though, especially if taking pictures is something you do regularly with yo...
